What makes Nagpur awesome!

The first thing coming in mind when you hear the word “Nagpur” is santre (oranges). This is a common tendency to link a place with its famous food item. But trust me, Nagpur is much more than the Santres. Nagpur not only gives Santres or Haldirams it has also given Maharashtra state its Chief Minister, Devendra Fadnavis. If u are a Nagpuri then you should be familiar with these places and take a walk down your memory lane to relive your visits there. For all non-Nagpuri, read this and make sure to enjoy these when you visit Nagpur ahead in future.

Weather you are on a morning walk or on a night out “Tari poha” is the best meal you can find out in city as it is available 24*7 you just need to find out where. I remember some of the pohe vala , when I used to hang out with friends 1’O clock at night and when we are hungry , we have just one thought “POHA” , Ramdaspeth ki tapri(underline) . Another I remember is Ravi Nagar, aunty ka poha (Under line)one of the most famous in hostalites of Ravi nagar which starts at 4.00 am and Kasturjan park ka poha(Underline).

The walkers street or the Joggers Park . It’s not any park it is a clean road covered with many trees . A place where most of the people come to walk in the morning . A place where you inhale clean air . For most of the people it is a meeting point . If you live in Nagpur then it must be a common for you that your friend calls you and says “Walkers pe milke decide krte“.

7) Futala lake

“Futala” one of the best place to hangout during morning and evening , because in the afternoon the sun will burn you .If you are with a group of friends and want to spend some time , celebrate birthday or enjoy some lonely time then the lake is just perfect . You can sit on the walls and enjoy the view . But make sure it is a lovers point too , you might end up disturbing some love birds . Sometimes it is not a good place to visit with your family .

Night time is not good to visit as you may find some alcoholic sitting out their .

8) Telankhedi Temple

10) Haldiram’s

Haldiram is one of the famous place . The restaurant serves delicious food and with low price . The ambiance is good . If you are a pure vegetarian then you must go their , best place to go with your family .Meal I like the most is chole bhature . Haldiram is not only famous for its restaurant but also for sweets and snacks . Another thing I like is “Softy”, “Haldiram ki softy”. A simple but very tasty .

11) Ambazari lake

Another lake to hangout with friends is Ambazari lake. This is not as much crowded as fulalta , because neither restaurant nor any proper sitting arrangement . But you can find too many couples hanging out their . Do not dare to enter this place with family . It is said that this place is not good during night . The place is not safe during the night and it has many horror stories.

Nagpur is a unique place, the most peaceful region in whole Maharashtra. It also has India’s oldest and strongest organisation RSS’s headquarter. We might not have much of big branded chained restos like McD or KFC or Starbucks but we have Shankar nagar ki tapri. Mast Nagpur!
